The "Wolf Pack" was the armed platoon and was one of the most effective and lethal armed helicopter platoons in RVN.

The Wolf Pack website, created and maintained by 281st Association Member and former Wolf Pack Platoon Leader, Fred Mentzer, now deceased, has been incorporated into the 281st Association web site.
